This week's episode is sponsored by Steam Donkey Brewery. The beer is amazing! www.steamdonkeybrewing.com Jeff and Brian discuss the inspiring 48-17 Seahawks preseason win over the Los Angeles Chargers. Who stood out? We combed through the entire 90-man roster and talked about where the biggest battles are. Free agent cornerback Tramaine Brock was in town for a visit. What would his addition mean?

Jeff and Brian get things started with a show full of offseason review and training camp anticipation. 1) Intro -- Thoughts on the Seahawks offseason and our recent series of articles on the seahawks identity crisis. 2) Russell Wilson discussion -- lots of variance in opinion on him this week. Clayton him had over Brees and top 5 in the league in his ranking. Andy Benoit had hm under Flacco and Carr.

The Falcons beat the Seahawks convincingly. What now? Softy and I discuss that and debate what would be a reasonable penalty for the Richard Sherman injury report fiasco.

Seattle ran over the Detroit Lions in the first week of the playoffs. Few saw that coming. Now they face off against the best offense in the NFL. Nobody expects them to win. I do. Let's talk about it.

Softy and I are finally back at it. The playoffs are made it a necessity that we find time to talk Seahawks. Many folks are down on Seattle's chances. We talk about that, and why there may be more reason for hope than you might think.

What would your football heaven look like? I go a bit far afield this week before diving into assessing how the Seahawks did last week and what to expect this week in Green Bay.

The Seahawks offensive line was abysmal last week in Tampa and essentially lost the game. They have a chance to bounce back and prove last week was an exception and not the rule against a terrific Panthers defensive line.

It's time to reflect on a remarkable run through some of the best teams in the NFL this season. The Seahawks have come out stronger for it, and now are set up to finish with a flourish. This game against Tampa won't be easy, but Softy and I can't help looking ahead to playoff seeing and scenarios.

Named Best Podcast in Western Washington by King5! Softy and I recount the Seahawks savory win over the Patriots, try to come some conclusions about why Christine Michael was shown the door, and look ahead to the game against the Eagles.

I'm on my way to New England to watch the Seahawks take on the powerhouse Patriots, but Softy and I found time to talk about what we noticed in the Bills game, and what to expect from this measuring stick game with Tom Brady and the Patriots.

Softy and I can't decide if we agree or disagree about what is ailing the Seahawks offense. All you need to know is I am right and he is wrong.

I'll admit to being a little frustrated by the rampant bitching going on among Seahawks fans. I'm also pretty frustrated that the coaching staff is refusing to commit to the running game. Softy and I discuss both in this week's podcast.

Softy and I discuss whether the Richard Sherman sideline blowup merits the coverage it has been getting, and whether the tenor of that conversation is justified. We also get into some keys for how the Seahawks won the Falcons game and what they will need to do in order to beat the Cardinals.

The Seahawks face a red hot Atlanta Falcons team. Brian and Softy talk about the keys to the game, and some insights about why first down may decide the outcome.
